This replication package contains following files: 

1. "analysis_main_v3.2.R" This file contains R codes annotated with explanation memos that execute all the analyses in the main text as well as Online Appendices A, C, and D. 

2. "analysis_slda_v3.2.R" This file contains R codes annotated with explanation memos that execute the analysis that uses Seeded Sequential LDA (Online Appendix B). Please check Online Appendix B for its methodological details. 

3. "ungd_files.RData" UN General Debate Corpus dataset downloaded from https://github.com/sjankin/lancet/blob/master/report2023/UNGA_indicator/data/ungd_files.RData (as of August 31, 2023). The dataset is required to run either one of "analysis_main_v3.2.R" or "analysis_slda_v3.2.R".

4. "ungd_entities.RData" The list of person/location/organization entities that appear in UN General Debate Corpus. It is genereated by pre-executing lines 54-60 in "analysis_slda_v3.2.R", given that it is time-consuming to run the codes there. Required in running "analysis_slda_v3.2.R" (unless you decide to run lines 54-60 on your own).

5. "unga_mwlist.rds" The list of collocations that appear in UN General Debate Corpus. It is genereated by pre-executing lines 84-85 in "analysis_slda_v3.2.R", given that it is time-consuming to run the codes there. Required in running "analysis_slda_v3.2.R" (unless you decide to run lines 84-85 on your own).

6. "divscores.rds" The list of divergence scores used to optimize number-of-topic parameter for Seeded Sequential LDA. It is genereated by pre-executing lines 136-147 in "analysis_slda_v3.2.R", given that it is time-consuming to run the codes there. Required in running "analysis_slda_v3.2.R" (unless you decide to run lines 136-147 on your own).

7. "slda_hi_opt.rds" The result of Seeded Sequential LDA estimation using the optimized number of topics (K=31). It is genereated by pre-executing lines 193-196 in "analysis_slda_v3.2.R", given that it is time-consuming to run the codes there. Required in running "analysis_slda_v3.2.R" (unless you decide to run lines 193-196 on your own).

8. "output_analysis_main_v3.2.zip" contains output logs as well as other figure/table files that are generated by executing analysis_main_v3.2.R.

9. "output_analysis_slda_v3.2.zip" contains output logs as well as other figure/table files that are generated by executing analysis_slda_v3.2.R
